When Jeremiah Davis III transferred to Ball State from Cincinnati before the spring semester of 2014, there was an understanding in place. The former Central Bearcat would spend the semester on scholarship and then likely be a walk-on next season for the Cardinals' basketball team.

But Cardinals coach James Whitford has confirmed to The Star Press that Davis will be a scholarship athlete in 2014-15. Davis will be eligible in the spring semester, and is awaiting word on an appeal that, if granted, would allow him to be eligible for the entire season.
